So there I was cycling along a main road with lots of Sportive riders heading in the other direction. Then I come up to a side road where they are joining the main road. A nob at the front shouts "clear" when I am about 10 metres from the junction (in clear view and cycling fairly fast) and like sheep riders start to follow - straight into my path. Cue very loud annoyed shouting from me as I pass by the shocked Sportivists who engage in emergency unclipping.
The same happened to my mate who was 200m behind me.
There were hundreds and hundreds of them and clearly some had not got much of a clue about how to turn right onto a main road. Very annoying indeed. On our ride back I noticed that they seemed to have marshalls at each junction - but from my experience some were doing a p..ss poor job.
Spleen now vented. Thanks.
